How to Change 🛠️ DualShock 4 Analog Stick Tension - PS4
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- How to change the tension of the PS4 controller analog stick, we have tension springs ranging from 10 gram till 200 gram.
Our springs will only fit original PS4 analog stick modules, so no aftermarket modules due to the fact these can have shorter springs inside.
Higher tension can be great for aiming in FPS games or racing games.
Note that replacing these springs is not advised for beginners. Some soldering skills are needed.

having repaired plenty of dualshock 4 pads in the past this guy makes it look very simple you need very steady hands to complete this
I just did mine right now it was kinda hard but you need steady hands but it was my first time
$4 a spring 😳🤮
How much to fix mine. Same problem left analog stick
I've got the shakiest of the shakiest of hands and I've already done it myself theres many methods to take to prevent hand shaking
What is the name of the tiny discs that are inside the green "doors"? I need to change one and I dkn't know how to search for them.
I’ve modded a handful of PS4 controllers on my channel, yet I’m blown away by the work you do. Keep it up, very inspirational 👌🏻
LaBelle's Workshop will do my best to inform as clear as possible👌
Seeing tiny parts disassembled or assembled either way is so satisfying. great video man
You all probably dont care but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Davian Brayan Instablaster ;)
@Manuel Justice Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Manuel Justice it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Davian Brayan happy to help :)
To fix a stick drift problem, I just did this minus the solder sucker and heat gun. It was not easy or fun..... but it got done. Wish I could pull it off with the speed & ease this guy is able to.
I've never seen anything like it before. The video is shot and the explanation is very clear, excellent. Thank you
Appreciate the tutorial bro. I was able to replace the drifting analog stick.
Also a tip to everyone: be sure when you are re-soldering the new analog stick in place, don't cross your solder.
Dont know why but 10:34 scared the s*** out of me. 😂
Calming lo-fi music to study and vibe to suddenly "HEY THAT'S PRETTY GOOD"
shit.. agree xD
@@davtech420 heEEEEY
Dude you read my mind. Great editing and instructional video without a lot of talking.
What a coincidence mine just broke and u guys upload a video on how to fix it hahaha greatness
Could I just send my broken controller to you
Yea on second thought I'll just buy a new controller
Lol thats no lie
When I got to this part after taking apart my controller and realizing I have to desolder it? Ah, fuck that, i'll just buy a new controller, because the price of the soldering tools will cost me the price of a new controller, and with PS5 around the corner? Hmmmmmmmmmm, yeah right.
@@m.3.3.w umm no, not even close to the cost of a new ds4. I ordered one off Amazon prime for $18! (For replacing a joystick module on my scuf impact cuz scuf doesnt service impacts anymore....)
@@m.3.3.w Best to find an electronics buddy to do this for you. Lucky for me I am that guy lol

Help me....my 2 weeks old Dualshock 4' left analog stick is drifting. What should I do 😞 ?
Finally I’m was looking for this video 😩 (part 2) thanks for sharing this!
"welcome" 😎
I know it a bit late but can you list the details of everything you used. I'm trying to remove and transfer a joy stick without melting everything to a crisp
What a huge pita this was. Haha. I found snipping the tabs off after using the solder pump was helpful for my wick to lap up the remainder. Also, if you get a sticky one, apply a small dome of fresh solder and wick it again. The new stuff will help suck the old stuff into the wick.
Problem is that everywhere I go to order new analogs the reviews say that they are garbage and not accurate and have lots of dead zones. I really need good, working analog sensors. Anyone know where I can get some?
buy old defective controllers
lowkeytheoneandonly same, its frustrating af.
Tried battle beaver? I want to try the higher tensions fr I m them but am scared they won't work
If it's just the sensor your worried about you can buy just the sensor wheel and replace it I think I've got a link to some I'll drop later
That would be awesome. I actually found the place that Sony buys their parts from. But I feel like that place is the problem, with making cheap garbage.
3:35 I Like this trophy LOL :D
this fixes the problem of the stick moving by itself
This is perfect! been looking for exactly this, thanks a million!
Sony knows this is a common point of failure. They could make it easier for the end user to repair by just using a ribbon cable connection like they do for the other components. They could use a screw mount to fix the joysticks to the body of the controller.
Also, I would not use a heat gun if you're not familiar as the joystick's plastic melts easily. Just keep hitting the pads with the soilder wick and make sure you coat the wick with Flux to make it draw the soilder easily.
the sharpness of the video is impressive 😮👍🙂
btw hot air is optional it will make it easy to remove the joystick but just putting the solder iron the the solder joints and wiggling them slightly would also remove them
This was super helpful man♥️♥️
I can’t believe how easy this is
I'm glad this video shows that it's not always easy, and its pretty tedious. . I've attempted this, and ruined my pads. I'll do it again. My tip keeps crumbling, why? I feel dumb. Maybe i need paste
Your hands working perfect! Good man! Great work!
What sping would be recommended for a game like war thunder where you are moving a cursor around? I've got as far as dissassembling and have the oem spring out just cant make my mind up which spring to order. I'm thinking a soft as possible would be best but would 10 grams still snap back to center?
Been trying to find wtf is inside one of these and had a hard time finding anything. Surprised it turns out to be that simple. Lots of solder though :/ Nice to know what makes it crappy stiff.
Excellent video, thanks for this man, you go straight to the point
Great video really help me decide to sod that and buy a new one lol
Great tutorial man, thanks for sharing this. Quick question - will a lower tension spring also reduce the tension needed to click L3/R3 (this is exactly what I'm looking to do)? Thanks again :)
Shaambler Did you ever find out, I’m trying to increase the tension in mine so I don’t accidentally Melee in apex high intensity fights
John Martin just change your melee button
Unfortunately not 🙁
The springs, this is just the press down "r3" requiring a firmer press? Or does it also make the stick glide more stiff/accurate? I always accidentally press r3 heat of moment.
zZz I would like to know that too
Glide stiffer, check out @ 10:30
Great vid. After replacing the analog module do you have to recalibrate the stickes or something? When I replaced my left one with a new analog module it drifts to the right. I can move in all directions but always drifts back to the right.
Same Any Solution?
@@Hamza-iz4nc no fortunately the original sticks were ok and I just resoldered it back making sure I had really good connects..I think the drift was due to either bad analog modules or ones the maybe we not 100% compatible.
The drift can be by the positioning of the green potentiometer on the side. You can try tilting the potentiometer maybe 1-2mm at most to find the magic spot. If you have a multimeter you can check the ohm readings of a good centered stick and align the potentiometer before installation.
Ds4 controller original springs are so much better compared than Xbox one controllers. They are too weak! I always switch them over to my xb1 controller. Nice vid btw 😀
Bought a 100 gram spring from your online store and after I installed the spring the thumb stick gets stuck when pushed to the corners I haven’t installed it onto the motherboard yet because of this. Any help?
Same problem. Did u solve it?
Matteo Ruin thumbstick must be and original , not a cheap fake
Ebay ones actually work. I just installed one with 100 gram sprint as well. I emailed him and he said it’s normal for it to get stuck around the corners as there’s more travel distance but once installed in the motherboard and in the controller completely the travel distance decreases so the analog stick can’t go all the way to the sides so it won’t get stuck.
Mine got stuck until I installed it completely and it works good.
when the module is not seated in a controller the stick will lock in place when pushed to the edges , and this is accentuated by the higher tension everything is fine. once in a controller the edges of the controller house will stop the stick before it goes far enough to stick .
Yeah this looks hard 🤣 I'll probably end up burning the damn thing or soldering where I shouldn't
Thank you for having clean hands lol 😆 🙏
I'm thinking about doing this with the higher tension analog sticks from battle beaver. They have a disclaimer that Sonys remotes are calibrated to specific abalog sticks and it might not work. What is your professional opinion?
great video, you really know how to make this all, i really like it.
lifetime experiences thanks🙆♂️
That chair squeak in the beginning reminded me of usher haha
very good video, i think is possible to change the spring without desoldering the analogic tho... i think i'll try it
0:09 "welcome stranger"
Nice video I watnted mostly to se the "anatomy" of this part and I saw also stupid thing I made on disoldering one it needs more tools except iron and solder vacumm.
The motherboard doesnt get ruined when you burn it?
That's Hardcore right there
Thank you. Really great work!
Great video! What kind of bench and support tools are you using?
Bump. I would like to know this as well
Mark Blydenburgh looks like harbor freight helping hands stand
That's cool man!!! Nice work
Are the springs that you showed in the video compatible with the 4 pin DS3 analog stick?
same question. i can not find new 4 pin sticks ANYWHERE
awsome video man, i subbed, keep them coming pls
Fantastic hand and a very good job thanks a lot
Ordered some springs from your site. I'm in US west coast. About how long do you think it will take to arrive? really just looking for an honest time frame.
So how long did it take....or are u still waiting
Good video, and what do you tell me about the quality of the analog that comes with the console? I ask this because I had a lot of analog problems with my old PS4 controls.
Ps4 controller have many quality problems. I have ps2 controllers yet and they are working. Shame on you Sony.
@@kerimbuyukbilgin ps3 controllers analogs are the worst, apparently.
I noticed your website is out of the 150 - 200 grams. I ordered the 100 grams to give it a try. let me know when you restock on the heavier springs.
You don't even respond to customers
Are you sampling Silent Hill? Awesome music!
That was amazing. Is there any way of getting inside that analog joystick while it's still on the board? See last night I was trying to slip/wedge something(a spacer) in between the contact that L3 clicks down onto and the adhesive wasn't dry enough and the spacer I had slipped right inside there and I cant get it out.... soooooo now its stuck inside. Idk if I've ruined it. And i am maybe 67% confident in my skill of doing what you just did maybe? Haha I'm a little rusty at soldering is all. If I can take it apart while its still on board thatd help alot
Interesting vid. There's a part on right side of my left analog module that moves (when stick moves). Any idea what holds it down or in place?
Are there different sizes for this analog stick module? I was wondering because I need to repair a third-party controller but I'm not sure if the part I'm gonna order from Aliexpress will fit. Thanks and have a nice day.
You saved me. Thank you so much
very good video 👍🏼 but problem with the key (O) it does not work I disassembled the Joystick and clean but it still does not work what should I do ???
Awesome! Thank you so much!
thanks. for improve am analog stick on a new generic ps4 contrioller do you recommend an specific stick or potentiometer pair to replace?
Hey brother I have a question, are the springs in the analogs are the same in PS4/3 X1/360 ? and I wanna order some springs I live in Saudi Arabia can I order ? great video btw ✋🏻.
The PS3 is different, XB1 is the same as far as I know. XB360 prob not the same but not sure.
XQ Gaming what about the second part of the question?☹️
ياخوي بالله لقيت حل..؟
حل ل وشو ؟
اذا كانت عندك مشكله بالانلوق اليسار صح
Do these springs work for the DualShock 3 as well or are these just for the DualShock 4? Many thanks!
Even though I do have a soldering kit this looks like something that I’d only do if it was a expensive controller
If its broken what have you got to lose? May aswell try, you might fix it
Muchas gracias. Eres el jefe. Thanks you are the boss
How can I order the high tension springs?
The original sticks on Elite Series 2 fucked me up,
so i think this is the best solution while the original sticks have deadzone and / or wobble.
Just solder new joysticks from default One controller and change the tension consistent by replace the spring inside.
For ego shooter use a light tension on the left joystick and a hard tension for the right joystick.
Hey man, I know it's a little off topic but I would appreciate your help, I have a Amazon Xbox one controller which one of it's thumbsticks is staring to feel hard and worn out, thing is that I wanted to replace the stick module with an old 360 controller module but the 360 module is a little bit bigger and it won't fit in the circuit board holes, I've been reading that DS3 analog stick modules are smaller than the 360's so i was wondering if those may fit or if there is some scale or nomenclature I ignore to know the seize or type of analog stick I need for replacement, thanks in advance.
Wow really nice website with all the parts you need.
people think this is for an old controller that worn out but its for new controllers because the sticks are loose as all hell on most controllers nowadays.
Word of advice people don't use a gas powered soldering iron and try to burn the solder off in one go like a certain friend did when he melted the plastic on the joy stick lol.
Does your site ship to the states or have a US counterpart? Would love to get be new OE analogs to mod and install into my DS4
Thank you so much you help me out alot
Does thumbstick tension affect how you click the thumbstick or only movement?
Excelente video.
Thanks!
@XQGaming Thank you for the video. Changed analog spring with higher tension, but now its moving hardly, what can be done ?
Can you guys make metal spring compressions for gamecube controllers
as well?
Do you have a service where I can ship my controller to you and you fix my analogue sticks with higher tension?
Can’t you buy those green boards in the controller with an increased tension ?
I have a PS4 slim controller and I'm planning to mod the stick tension. The modules in the controller are the orange ones and there's no spring inside them. Would it still work if I swap it out with the green module?
What is the difference between the standard green joysticks vs the black and orange ones?
Is insufficient spring tension the cause of the analog stick not centring properly and allowing unwanted movement on some games?
what's the name of the tool you use to hold the ds4 motherboard???
I have replaced the two analog sticks from my xbox 360 controller for pc and now they lost precision on diagonal directions, what could be?
The analog of my dualshock os getting stuck in the corners, i'm pissed off
Mateus Lira me to
Same problem man if you found any solution pls let me know
It’s stuck after u did this spring replacing?
Excellent Bro. Regards
Question! What would happen if i took out the spring and didn't replace it? Would the analog stick still function??? Wanting to mod one of my old controllers to use as a FPV sim, and having the left stick act like a gimbal with no 'return to center' function would really help.
I have an X360 controller that isn't exactly broken, it's just that the left analog stick has become quite a bit loose and doesn't quite snap back to center, instead sometimes it leans slightly to the left, which most of the time isn't enough to cause mayor problems but it's still annoying. I'm not sure if fixing that is worth going through all this, especially since it works perfectly otherwise.
will these springs work on the DualSense stock joysticks? They use the same alps analog sticks I believe, but you know better than I.
Do you have a kit like battlebeaver for the separe d-pad (4 small arrow button)
What kind of heat gun is that to help remove solder? I got one but it must be a cheap model. I put one of the narrow tips on it and started melting the plastic housing of the gun
The music is soo damn cool
yes! can u please tell me the name of it ! 😫
Hi I’m disabled and I find clicking down L3 to run on games a nightmare, is this the way so the analog will click with ease and not give me really bad pains in my thumb? Great video 👌
Paynes42 it’s possible if you get a spring that has a low gf for L3 since it’s loose I think it’ll be easier to press in. As I have one with the tension on R3 at 100g and clicking it in compared to the stock 75g (according to his chart) it’s a bit harder to press in. So possibly a 50g or lower for you might alleviate that problem. So when you click in to sprint it won’t hurt your thumb.
how many grams of resistance does dualshock 4 and xbox one x sticks have? i feel like xbox one x has less resistance, trying to figure out which analog stick to order.
On what he's holding this controller hard drive? Was trying to get one like this but can't fine anything
Hi. What temperature you use on Soldering iron and heat gun ? Thank you 👍
I learned if you put a glob of solder on what ever its easier to get all of it off with a solder pump
To much solder
Thicc blob of solder
Nice vid, but your soldering tip is... Dang dude. Gotta keep that boi tinned.
